Shreveport's hotel market leaves much to be desires, so we decided to do something different and try a vacation rental while visiting family for 5 days and 4 nights over Thanksgiving.
This was a new listing.
First of all, the unit is in a great location. You have easy access to I-20 and other major access points around Shreveport, including King's Hwy and Youree Drive. The neighborhood surrounding the unit was very quiet. The unit is very large. We were quite surprised at the size of it. I loved the 10 foot ceilings, which made the unit feel even larger. The owner's were very responsive with any concerns or needs that we had. Most messages were answered within 30 minutes.
As I mentioned, this was a new listing. As it often happens with grand openings, there was a small mishap. Unfortunately, we didn't have heat the first two nights. To be fair, we arrived late the first night and went to bed. We didn't notice that the heat wasn't working until the next morning. That morning, we contacted the owners and they swiftly made arrangements for evaluation and repair of the HVAC and brought us space heaters and extra blankets. The HVAC was repaired the next day.
We had a good experience and would stay again.
